Foxtel’s Amanda Laing adds content to her remit in latest restructure
Foxtel’s chief commercial officer, Amanda Laing, is set to add content to her remit in the latest restructure at the News Corp-owned subscription TV business.
Laing’s new role, chief commercial and content officer, will include entertainment and sport, as part of a change which will better integrate Foxtel’s three core offerings – Foxtel, Kayo and Binge – and its wider operations.

This is hardly ‘journalism’. You have literally taken a press release (full of corporate spin) and printed it. You guys continue to fail to flush out any real (or factual) insights into Foxtel, or it’s slow and deserved decline into oblivion.
Foxtel is the master of the facade – everything looks great out front but an absolute show behind the scenes. Constant re-structures and mass redundancies that somehow escape mainstream media attention are made worse by their insistence on re-branding channels that recycle the same old content. Call centres shut down in Australia while customers are forced to speak to agents at home in the Phillipines and South Africa. And in the midst of this pandemic they receive additional funding from the government? Worst of all are the bloated management teams where everyone has a fancy title and salary package despite the business losing money.
